  • An I-1 visa is a non-immigrant visa issued by the United States for foreign media representatives and journalists who travel to the United States for the purpose of working exclusively in their profession. All applicants must meet eligibility criteria, which requires them to be residents of foreign countries, working for foreign information outlets headquartered in their respective countries. The I-1 visa does not grant anyone guaranteed entry to the United States. It initially gives the holder permission to travel to the United States port-of-entry for an interview with a representative of the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services, who decides whether or not the holder should be given the right to cross the border and work in the United States. Applicants for the I-1 visa must be able to prove that their activities in the United States are of great value to the employing organization. These activities must not have any commercial motive, such as entertainment or advertising, while the organization itself must represent press, radio, film, print or other types of information media. Any activity that does not rely on the process of gathering information and reporting on actual events that take place within the territory of the United States cannot be considered grounds for obtaining the I-1 visa. Every foreign media representative who is willing to visit the United States to engage in the media profession must apply for the I visa. American immigration law does not allow holders of other visa types or those visiting the United States under any other status or programs, such as the Visa Waiver Program., to work for foreign media outlets without the I visa. The only exception is representatives working for the United Nations Organization. Spouses and children of the I visa holder can legally travel to the United States with them after obtaining the same type of visa (derivative visa). Immediate family members are allowed to study, but they are not allowed to take any job while staying in the United States. (en)
